[Chimera-users] help with error message

[Elaine Meng]

HI Susan,
The better approach to reporting Chimera problems is to use "Help... Report a Bug" in the Chimera menu and attach your input file (and include your email address if you would like feedback).  Just showing the error message is usually not enough information.
Thanks,
Elaine
